I tend to net 500-750k every night I play so I'm at 16M now. My high end suit is 70k so I only let myself lose it once or twice before switching to my 8k AR suit. I rarely let myself die more than 4-5 times per match so I almost always make some money. |

I tried an experiment shortly after the last reset, use the most expensive suit/fittings I can to see if I can go bankrupt (without the use of AUR items).
I am now running a 75k type-B suit, I have about 47 million ISK, and it's still climbing. Lesson here is, use better gear and you can survive longer and take out enemies more efficiently, therefore you lose less and make more ISK.
Although I have been playing this game for several months now, and am able to do much better than I used to in terms of survivability. This may not work for everyone, but it works great for me. I think in the last month the most amount of deaths I got in a match was 5. Typically I go x-1, or if I didn't do so well, x-3. A really bad game for me would be x-4 or x-5 (at least in ambush, skirmish is a bit different due to the length and inevitable risk-taking. Went 40-5 the other week and that was not a bad game for me despite getting 5 deaths). |

since my fits cost about 10k each, I have not, to run out of isk i'd have to die like 15 times a match. |

I'm in a constant state of broke-ness. I can usually cover my losses, but going up against the higher ranked corps always eats through my better suits. |

I saw a red Dropship pull a Monty Python on a blueberry last week. He tried to get me next but hugging the CRU saved the day.
Getting back on topic I do have not has trouble saving up isk. The cost is in the fit names. After a couple "Hvy I Assault Forge 26.5k" deaths I fall back to other Heavy or Logi fits that are under 17k. If it's going to be one-of-those-fights out comes the "'Sever' Toxin 6.6k" fit.
10 mil cushion. Just in case I suddenly go bonkers for tanks or Dropship (again).
Although I should probably be one of the last people to give budget advice. Just burned nearly 500k isk for Sidearm Sharpshooter Proficiency with no intention of training it past level 1. |

50mil plus at the moment but increasing fast. But I do run a BPO Suit except for the nades. I am not buying a BPO for nades when hey cost 240 Isk. Of course my skills are not where I want them yet so I am not going to use more expensive suits yet.
I guess for those who play as pilots or use HAVs and high end LAVs need to find corps with rich players who are willing to contribute assets and Isk to the (corp) team/squad if you get to play together often. Possibly difficult proposition when you can not filter for locations/regions and time zones etc
I am currently saving my money to see if they introduce money making investments into the game e.g mining , building factories or developing product lines and BPOs etc |

Thanks for all the posts guys.
I don't know what I was doing, I was just really high all week. My suit cost like 50k ISK.
2 enhanced shield extenders, 2 enhanced armour plates. GEK, Assault Type 2.
Now I'm using A-Series, 3 enhanced shield extenders, 2 enhanced armour plates, GEK.
Think that's around 40k, not sure.
Had quite a few 0 death games using the A series. I have ~2.5 KDR so I dunno what was going on about dying all the time and losing ISK.
I haven't actually gone negative apart from maybe one game in my first week of playing. (which i undoubtedly would have exited).
One game I went about 40-10. it's a fair amount of kills but it's a fair amount of deaths u know?
Maximum I get is 300k ISK from a game of Skirmish.
Oh and anyone who doesn't understand that ''back on top with 1.2m ISK'' is a joke, ESPECIALLY coming from someone who is called ''crotch grab 360'' really needs to think about the condition of their brain...
Anyway thanks for the advice and the entertainment in your responses people :) Keep playing, keep enjoying! |

I basically always have < 200k. I just constantly refill all my different fits (8 or 9 across 3 suits), and I stock up on my LAV and Dropship.
Dropships eat ISK like a fat kid eats chinese food, it's crazy man.... |

I think the key is more to not die than to get a good KDR. if you go 50:10 with a 50k suit you'll spend 500k and maybe earn 300k. If you go 10:2 you'll spend 100k and earn 200k. Same KDR obviously. |

whatsa matter? your tampon up too far?
like i said, i wrote an article about this very thing last year
actually heard this exact conversation in my squad last week. dude just doesn't get it.
which is why i asked CCP to include you profit margin in the stats at th eend of the match.
it'll be the only way you can see what you are doing wrong.
most of you won't get it if it's explained to you. and you won't like hearing what you are being told becuase it won't fit into the " i wanna go now and bunny hop my way to the top of the leaderboards" mentality.
too much ezmode gaming for too long.
cod ruined you.
walk it off... you'll be aright!
well, you'll be broke, but aright!

oh man let me correct that for you:
"you don't care who i am..."
yeah, i don't.
actually it's been 10 years:
10 years plus and you guys STILL haven't learned a f'ing thing and STILL suck at gaming.
case in point:
the title of this thread.
but hey man... you keep on keeping on.
don't bother learning anything, just keep stinking up the joint.
